My current practice involves an on-going process of exploration and reconstruction of identity – of personal and of modern and contemporary objects.
Literature, being muy another creative medium, helps to record the changing cultural tastes and behaviours in a personal lens. Through adopting the role of a ‘story-collector’, I record encounters and dialogues in poetry and short stories as a way of escaping from familiarities.
